3D Kitchens and Furniture Driving the Digital Transformation of Large and DIY Retailers
As an online company, providing an easy-to-use, web-based user experience was essential. We are impressed with the simplicity and intuitive flow of HomeByMe. We offer our customers an effective tool to digitally design their kitchen with the latest styles and trends.
3D design reinvents the customer experience: consumers become active, engaged, and ready to make a purchase
Take the example of a sofa: 1 in 3 European consumers would choose a brand offering an online configurator for sofa purchases over one that doesn’t (IPEA x HomeByMe). For high-involvement purchases, making 3D design accessible to consumers becomes a key lever to reassure, simplify decision-making, and enhance the shopping experience.
From click to store: the importance of web-to-store strategies to boost online discovery and in-store traffic
Among products sold in DIY retail chains, kitchens lead the way (43%), followed by furniture (34%) and bathrooms (13%), according to IPEA. While kitchen and large furniture sales remain minimal online, 80% of consumers start their shopping journey on the web. Implementing web-to-store strategies is crucial for furniture retailers and DIY chains.
3D planners for designing interior layouts resonate with today’s consumers.
The future of large and DIY retail and e-commerce is here, led by three key developments.
Omnichannel solutions
Consumers expect to shop anytime, anywhere. Omnichannel sales strategies are central.
Web-to-store strategies
While the journey starts online, most purchases are finalized in-store. Digital strategies have become a key transformation driver.
Personalized experiences
Consumers want every step of their journey, from inspiration to purchase, to be fully personalized.
With data mastery, furniture and kitchen sales take on a new dimension: smoother, personalized, and performance-driven
